I don't understand. If low drop shoes are one of the causes of tight calfs, what happened before cushioned shoes? Or ppl who hv never worn shoes? Surely a higher heel toe drop would cause tight calfs.
I don't understand either as ive never in my life had tight calves but since ive been wearing zero drop shoes such as xero....ive had nagging calf tightness for months. Im torn as i love xero because i have so much toe box room and my bunion no longer hurts. If its not one thing its another
my son took a break from soccer for about 5 months and was drumming every day. When he got back into soccer, he's started having a lot of calf pain and tightness. I wonder if his calf shortened from the lifted heal position while drumming.
Watched twice .. So do I want a High Drop shoe or a Low Drop shoe .. confusing because of discussion of high heel walking shoes that followed .. Thanks
@@John-wr3yy oo yes i am back to running fully i do speed works, long runs, tempos. still have soreness after run but its soreness not like injury pain. And thi is fading slowly as well. so i actually have lots of advice: first getting rid of orthopedic insoles was the best decision, the reason that i got injured is because the insoles made my calf and feet muscles weak, it means i wasn't using them so i was not able to show my potential anyways. (you run better when all muscles are involved than only 10 or 5 ) So it worths once you start the process its better to bring it to finish eventualy it will get better If pain is alot wait till it will get down to level 4 from 10 and than add exercises of feet, calf and glutes Go slow first week but then load them good Then start running but with more recovery like 1 day run 2 or 3 day rest and slowly you will be back .look for recoverys -like first week it took 2 days for pain to fade but next week only one day something like this is a good sign ( stretch and foam roll calfs from all sides ) Ps.exercises are crutial Hope this can help
@@John-wr3yy i did got injured by the way 😆 i hardly could walk Took Two month to recover, but worth it. insoles are bulshit they do more harm than good
